About me.
EDITOR | BOOK COACH | GHOSTWRITER
Erica Harrison
I started my writing career over 15 years ago. Over the years, I have represented the voice of countless clients, whether it was a company vision or personal experience. Given how much I love storytelling, I knew I had found my niche when I moved into the book support space.
Every person has a valuable idea to share, but the act of writing itself encumbers most people from doing so—and that can be discouraging to those with something to share. As Maya Angelou once stated, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you." As a professional writer, I feel compelled to remove that barrier and serve as a conduit between an author and their audience. I choose to partner with clients whose missions and visions resonate with my own — it's vital that I feel invested in their success.
In addition to 15 years of professional writing, my other areas of expertise have led to countless firsthand experiences, all of which knit together nicely into the ability to uncover an author's message, adopt the author's voice, and write compelling and engaging books.
I have an educational background in health sciences and psychology, including a bachelor's degree in general psychology with postgraduate education in experimental social psychology.
This means I understand your readers' psychological intricacies—how they interact with content and what keeps them engaged. It also helps me write on self-help and psychology topics with agility and ease.
I also have experience in science and medicine, including several years of undergraduate study at Beth-el School of Nursing at the University of Colorado. I never lost my passion for medicine. I'm a therapeutic yoga instructor, which enables me to finesse health and wellness topics.
I've worked with numerous CEOs and other business leaders, many of whom were in the SaaS software and technology space, so I have extensive experience writing on software and technology concepts, too.
I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where I love exploring the outdoors, enjoying the local cafes, painting, and spending time with friends and family, especially my dog. In my free time, I practice a different storytelling modality — novels.
